Britney Spears is getting told she pulled a big no-no by going kissy with her favorite cowboy, one she stumbled across during an L.A. outing this week. The 39-year-old pop princess, also seeing her fans wonder how the heck she avoided the paparazzi, made headlines last night for an Instagram update. Posting for her 29.4 million followers, the "Circus" hit-maker went leggy with a statue of a seated cowboy on a sidewalk, even planting a kiss on him. See the photos and storm below.

Scroll for the photos, ones that come as Britney continues to front media outlets for admitting she was left "embarrassed" by documentary "Framing Britney Spears."
On Thursday night, the singer shared three shots. All showed her in tiny shorts, a maroon sweater, and Birkenstocks as she both posed with and kissed the statue she'd stumbled across. "So, me and this cowboy go way back," Britney had opened. "He had a farming job down south and I met him 6 years ago through my cousin. He always told me I was a hard one."

Spears, known for her super-upbeat captions, continued:
"I was leaving a boutique that day and saw him sitting on the bench ... as you can see I was so excited to see him again !!! He laughed … as usual … and I kissed him on the cheek ??? !!!! I asked how long he'd been sitting there and he said he was waiting for his horse ???."
Fans, who have been seeing Spears during her recent Malibu Country Mart shopping trip, have thoughts.

Early responses were dominated by users just not getting how the most talked-about A-Lister around managed to wander streets without the paparazzi catching her. "Literally no paparazzi has caught you. What's your secret??" the top comment reads.
Not far off it, though, was a remark seemingly shading the Grammy winner. "Hey Brit Love you, please don't kiss public objects," the user wrote. "Especially not during COVID," another replied. A troll claimed the singer "never cared about cleanliness," but others weren't having their favorite icon trashed. More photos below.

Quickly defending the mom of two was a fan writing: "Brit girl kiss whatever you want, you do you ma!"
Of course, the die-hard movement that is #FreeBritney will defend this girl until the end of the earth. "Her kisses actually cure COVID idk if you knew that...," one user wrote, adding: "But maybe think before you comment next time."
Britney's last outing came with her saying the paparazzi caught her, even though she was hiding in boyfriend Sam Asghari's blazer. If you missed her Starbucks run, see her drink below!
